A simple trick you could try is to reduce the occupancy of the Thr in
the single-conformer model (somewhere in the 0.5-0.75 range is good)
and re-calculate the maps.  Sometimes this makes the difference map
clear enough to show where the second conformation goes, since it
isn't quite as flattened out by presence of the (full-occupancy)
primary conformation.
